Formatted computer, no sound after re-install.

After formatting my pc and reinstalling windows, i tried playing some music but had no joy. I looked in device manager and 'media control devices' had a yellow question mark over it. So i tried installing the realtek driver from realteks website. When it was installing, it got to a certain point and resarted my computer. So i tried in safe mode, it finished installing and said, along the lines of ' hardware installed, in order for it to work properly your computer needs to be resarted'. So i let it restart, it got to the windows loading screen and resarted and kept doing this, so i went back to safe mode and removed it. I still have no sound............. Any help? Thanks

You need to install the chipset drivers. Download and install PC Wizard from here http://www.cpuid.com/download/pcw2008_v183.exe
and then run it. When opened, go to FILE, SAVE AS and save the text file to your desktop. COpy the text out of that file into this thread. Then i wil help you download the correct chipset drivers.

I have the same problem, formatted computer, no sound after re`install, only in my case is about a notebook Packard Bell EasyNote MZ45. I have to tell you that before format i had vista on the notebook, and now i`he installed xp.
